The stats don’t lie.
• 1 in 4 U.S. women will have an abortion by the time she turns 45.
• Up to 1 in 4 pregnancies end in miscarriage.
• 10% of all couples experience some form of infertility.
Reproductive loss is common. Incredibly common. So why don’t we talk about it more? Because we’re uncomfortable with embodiment. With death. With grief. And so in our silence, we isolate those who are suffering in solitude.
That’s why we decided to dedicate this episode to reproductive loss: to explain what it is (it’s way more than miscarriage) and share ways to journey alongside those who are hurting. We can’t make anyone’s grief go away, but we can help someone feel less alone.
